Event FAQs

Are there multiple Ice Cream Festival events?

Yes,
the 12th Annual Austin Ice Cream Festival will host two separate events this
year ~ Daytime (10am-3pm) and After Dark (6-10pm) ~ on Saturday, June 23, 2018. A separate ticket is required for each event
per person, unless a "Double Scoop" option is purchased. The Daytime
event will be family and pet friendly with mounds of frozen treats, contests,
activities and local entertainment. Whereas the After Dark event provides a
more trendy treat experience, concert with headlining musicians, boozy frozen
drinks and night long fun. Come to either or both! **Purchase tickets for
either session now!

Are
there age requirements to enter the event?

All
ages are welcome. Children 6 and under receive free festival entry with a
ticketed adult, but will require a Sampling Passbook “stamp” to redeem frozen
treat samples. Parents are welcome to share their passbook (included with paid admission), or additional passbooks can be purchased at the Box Office for $10 each.

Are
pets permitted?

Friendly
dogs on a leash are welcome during the Daytime
event, from 10am-3pm! Please make sure to bring bags to clean up after your
pet's waste. No exotic, dangerous, aggressive, or unleashed/unattended pets
will be permitted at the discretion of Fest Staff & Security.

However,
pets are NOT permitted onsite during After Dark at Austin’s Ice Cream Festival,
6pm-10pm. While we are dog and pet lovers, we ask that you keep your pets at
home as delicate pup ears and loud music do not mix.
